In the News: Why a new Burlington cafe offers showers

Cleaning up after running to work is a topic of much discussion and debate. Some people will absolutely not run to the office if they can’t shower when they get there. Others, including some of the fine writers here at TRC, clean up without showering at all. We’ll have a post about that soon, but until then, check out this piece about Maglianero Cafe in Burlington, VT.

Biking or running to work in Burlington and finding that morning fix when you get there can be tough.

Rene Hanson said, “Most offices don’t have a shower and they don’t have a great coffee place either.”

The team at the new Maglianero Cafe on Maple Street is in business to change that. Its space is bike friendly and riders can grab a shower free of charge.

The folks are Maglianero are awesome! While it looks like their regulars are mainly cyclists, the shower facilities can be used by other alternative commuters, too. Check out their blog and if you are in the area, stop in and tell us about your visit!
